Ever notice how normal people die in groups of 146K per day?

It’s gotta be some sort of statistical anomaly, but every day, starting at 00:00:00 GMT, you can always count on thousands of people — who don’t know each other, living on different continents — to die within minutes of each other.

Creepy, isn’t it?

In the meantime…

Play America’s newest online game craze — Celebrity Death Prank!

It’s fun and easy! Just tweet or post a message that someone famous has died and watch as the world’s people of pallor, i.e. EnterWeb junkies, take it and run with it.

Despite what you may have read, Jeff Goldblum, Natalie Portman, George Clooney, Britney Spears, Harrison Ford and Rick Astley are alive.

Fake news of their deaths flew across the Internet — particularly on online social networks like Twitter and Facebook — after Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett and Ed McMahon were reported dead.”(CNN) Don’t leave home without themActor Karl Malden really did die.

Yes…I have played Celebrity Death pool but do not anymore. It’s simply not funny to me anymore.

Let me add…that this notion of famous people dying in 3′s is not new. It goes back to the French Aristocracy when the Merovingian royalty would execute people whom they chose in groups of three. And the three would generally have something in common…like being an unfunny comic or having their last record fail…oh wait..that’s us today. Nevermind…

Apparently there is an internet betting game on who will be the next celebrity to die. Someone like Michael Jackson would probably have paid off a lot because not many would have had money on him whereas a lot of people would have put money on Farrah. Sounds interesting though a little on the “not very polite” side of things.
